Wake up, it’s a beautiful morning!

It’s raining you say? Ahh, It’s always a good morning when you have good coffee to look forward to! The saviour. Coffee was put on this earth for this very reason – it knew that one day we would be moving around in little boxes going to bigger boxes to put papers in other boxes and sometimes that not all of us would wake up wanting to do that.

Cold brewed coffee is the new iced coffee… The long infusion produces a gentler tasting coffee with less acidity and the subtle notes and flavours of the coffee are more noticeable.

Caffeine, the active ingredient in coffee, is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance in the world. It is not only a stimulant that helps you to wake up in the morning, but also a health drink with benefits for both physical and mental health. Caffeine works by blocking the inhibitory neurotransmitter, adenosine. In effect, this increases neuronal firing in the brain and the release of neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and dopamine – leaving you feeling just swell.1

Studies have shown that coffee can offer other health benefits include protecting against type two diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, improves memory, vigilance, reaction time and general cognitive function.1
